TABLET FOR HAPPINESS
THE HAPPEN MAN IS HE WHO CONSTANTLY BRINGS FORTH AND PRACTICES WHAT IS BEST IN HIM.
HAPPINESS AND VIRTUE COMPLEMENT EACH OTHER. THE BEST ARE NOT ONLY THE HAPPIEST, BUT THE HAPPIEST ARE USUALLY THE BEST IN THE ART OF LIVING LIFE SUCCESSFULLY. GOD IS THE HIGHEST AND BEST IN YOU. EXPRESS MORE OF GOD'S LOVE, LIGHT, TRUTH, AND BEAUTY, AND YOU WILL BECOME ONE OF THE HAPPIEST PERSONS IN THE WORLD TODAY.
EPICTETUS, THE GREEK STOIC PHILOSOPHER, SAID, THERE IS BUT ONE WAY TO
TRANQUILITY OF MIND AND HAPPINESS, LET THIS, THEREFORE, BE ALWAYS READY AT HAND WITH THREE, BOTH WHEN THOU WAKEST EARLY IN THE MORNING, AND ALL THE DAY LONG, AND WHEN THOU GOEST LATE TO SLEEP, TO ACCOUNT NO EXTERNAL THINGS THINE OWN, BUT COMMIT ALL THESE TO GOD.
SUMMARY OF STEPS TO HAPPINESS
1. WILLIAM JAMES SAID THAT THE GREATEST DISCOVERY OF THE 19TH CENTURY WAS THE POWER OF THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND TOUCHED BY FAITH.
2. THERE IS TREMENDOUS POWER WITHIN YOU. HAPPINESS WILL COME TO YOU WHEN YOU ACQUIRE A SUBLIME CONFIDENCE IN THIS POWER. THEN, YOU WILL MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE.
3. YOU CAN RISE VICTORIOUS OVER ANY DEFEAT AND REALIZETHE CHERISHED DESIRES OF YOUR HEART THROUGH THE MARVALOUS POWER OF YOUR SUBCONCIOUS MIND. THIS IS THE MEANING OF WHOSOVER TRUSTETH IN THE LORD (SPIRITUAL LAWS OF THE SUBSCONCIOUS MIND), HAPPY IS HE.
4. YOU MUST CHOOSE HAPPINESS. HAPPINESS IS A HABIT. IT IS A GOOD HABIT. IT IS A GOOD HABIT TO PONDER OFTEN ON WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE TRUE, WHATSOEVER THINGSARE HONEST, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE LOVELY, WHATSOEVER THINGS ARE OF GOOD REPORT. IF THERE BE ANY VIRTUE, AND IF THERE BE ANY PRAISE, THINK ON THESE THINGS.
5. WHEN YOU OPEN YOUR EYES IN THE MORNING, SAY TO YOURSELF, I CHOOSE HAPPINESS TODAY. I CHOOSE SUCCESS TODAY. I CHOOSE RIGHT ACTION TODAY. I CHOOSE LOVE AND GOOD WILL FOR ALL TODAY. I CHOOSE PEACE LOVE AND GOOD WILL FOR ALL TODAY. I CHOOSE PEACE TODAY. POUR LIFE, LOVE, AND INTEREST INTO THIS AFFIRMATION, AND YOU HAVE CHOSEN HAPPINESS.
6. GIVE THANKS FOR ALL YOUR BLESSINGS SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. FURTHERMORE, PRAY FOR THE PEACE, HAPPINESS, AND PROSPERITY OF ALL MEMBERS OF YOUR FAMILY, YOUR ASSOCIATES, AND ALL PEOPLE EVERYWHERE.
7. YOU MUST SINCERELY DESIRE TO BE HAPPY. NOTHING IS ACCOMPLISHED WITHOUT DESIRE. DESIRE IS A WISH WITH WINGS OF IMAGINATION AND FAITH. IMAGINE THE FULFILLMENT OF YOUR DESIRE, AND FELL ITS REALITY, AND IT WILL COME TO PASS. HAPPINESS COMES IN ANSWERED PRAYER.
8. BY CONSTANTLY DWELLING ON THOUGHTS OF FEAR, WORRY, ANGER, HATE, AND FAILURE, YOU WILL BECOME VERY DEPRESSED AND UNHAPPY. REMEMBER, YOUR LIFE IS WHAT YOUR THOUGHTS MAKE OF IT.
9. YOU CANNOT BUY HAPPINESS WITH ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD. SOME MILLIONARIES ARE VERY HAPPY, SOME ARE VERY UNHAPPY. MANY PEOPLE WITH VERY LITTLE WORLDLY GOODS ARE VERY HAPPY, AND SOME ARE VERY UNHAPPY. SOME SINGLE PEOPLE ARE HAPPY, AND SOME ARE VERY UNHAPPY. THE KINGDOM OF HAPPINESS IS IN YOUR THOUGHT AND FEELING.
10. HAPPINESS IS THE HARVEST OF A QUIET MIND. ANCHOR YOUR THOUGHTS ON PEACE, POISE, SECURITY, AND DIVINE GUIDANCE, AND YOUR MIND WILL BE PRODUCTIVE OF HAPPINESS.
11. THERE IS NO BLOCK TO YOUR HAPPINESS, EXTERNAL THINGS ARE NOT CAUSATIVE, THESE ARE EFFECTS, NOT CAUSE. TAKE YOUR CUE FROM THE ONLY CREATIVE PRINCIPLE WITHIN YOU. YOUR THOUGHT IS CAUSE, AND NEW CAUSE PRODUCES A NEW EFFECT. CHOOSE HAPPINES.
12. THE HAPPIEST MAN IS HE WHO BRINGS FORTH THE HIGHEST AND THE BEST IN HIM. GOD IS THE HIGHEST AND THE BEST IN HIM, FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN.
